Nice work! I have a 73 with the AMC 258 also. I'd like to get it to this level eventually. How 'did you power your HEI? just tap into a wire from the ignition switch, or did you use a relay?
I know this is an older video, I would like to know what cam you put in? Also did you do anything to the lower end of the motor? Did you change anything as far as gearing in the differentials?
What camshaft? I just installed in our 258 a Crower Level 4 278/284 duration crower says it has a definite lope at idle.. We'll see! I got a little bit to before we get to hear run, 83 CJ7 axles up restore! Few more weeks!!
That is sweet, I have a 78 traveler that I got for 250.00 . It has a 304 4sp and I want to put my 4.0 ho 6 in it but I can't locate the correct bellhousing for the 258 to scout 2 4sp trans.any idea's as to where to look next?
Hey this is the same build I am planning on my 73 AMC Hornet with another anemic 258. What cam did you use? I am rebuilding my craigslist weber 38 right now. Searching for a junkyard 4.0 head. Sounded great!
Sorry for the delay in getting back to you...I haven't looked at youtube in a while. All parts were purchased from Clifford Research. They're a pretty easy google....good luck !
Man, that sounds badass.
I got a 1973 scout 2 i6 amc258 also. I love the way i6 runs. But you are right no power. Did you ever check what mods increased hpw. Thx
Nice jeep 4.0l

Was that straight piped? I have a 75 CJ5 with a 232. Similar engine. That was a good sound.
Sorry.....don't get on here much. Yeah, it was open headers ....have since run through Flowmasters. Sounds like a V8 with the split headers.
Where did you get breathers
